Latinidad Identidad
Spreading Latinx Awareness through Dance and Art
By Señora Werstler
On Thursday, March 21, 2024 the 8th grade traveled to the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts to meet with members of Latinidad Identidad, a dance team that “hopes to spread Latinx awareness through dance and art on campus.”
Latinidad Identidad members shared with us a brief introduction to Latinx dances and culture, and showed us how to dance bachata, merengue, and salsa. Our visit culminated with a delicious catered Latin American themed luncheon.

When they finished their calculations, they decorated and embellished their animal creatures.
